MAY 29. 1964 Firm 4 Question In Dispute A debate of considerable import- ance in the Commons this week is on a bill to enable the govern- ment to declare the 12-mile fishing limit and a new basis for determin- ing the three-mile territorial limit. Apparently there is full agreement as to the advantages to Canadian fishermen of a measure of this kind: the ,dispute is over the feasibility of attempting to enforce it. and the possible retaliatory action which other countries. notably the United States. may take. in connection therewith. Fisheries Minister Robichaud says it is difficult to see h0w any question of retaliation by Washing- ton could arise: but. there has been some talk by American politicians to this effect. and one would ex- pect the minister to be more ex- plicit in setting at rest any doubt on this score. . The United States has treaty and historic fishing rights in Cana- dian waters on both coasts. and Mr. Robichaud says it is the intention to insure that these rights will be respected, whatever limits are es- tablished. But neither Washington nor the Canadian public knows what these limit are to be. and it is this uncertainty that is beclouding the issue. Under the proposed bill the gov- ernment would be empowered to declare base lines from headland to headland along its coasts and to use these as the start-off points for measuring both the 3-mile and 12-mile zones. Opposition speakers doubt that the government could enforce its action unilaterally, and insist that the vital base lines be identified in the bill rather than ' leaving them to the administration. Mr. Robichaud is convinced that a satisfactory agreement can be ar- rived at with "the various coun- tries that fish in Canadian waters.” but he concedes that true interna- tional agreement could not be reach- edE in the normal sense because 10 yurs of earlier efforts by Canadian governments have failed. He feels. on the other hand, that to delay the edibling legislation would make negotiations more difficult. Although Parliament can pass the legislation. it Will not take ef- fect until proclaimed by order in council. and even if proclaimed it will have no effect until the base lines are established by order-in- otfincil. India And Pakistan The death of Prime Minister Nehru raises one particularly seri- ous problem for India, and for other parts of the world. It is noted that after .17 years of bitter separation between India and Pakistan. Mr. Nehru had decided that reconcilia- ' ‘of the two countries was es- ‘ ,and was doing all he could to this about. Elements in his " e Moslems in what would . to common defense against . r been Pakistan's pro- .aer warmer relations with I after the Chinese invasion Frank Walker I Editor ’ elsewhere outside British Com- 1 series of meetings of the home min- isters of the two countries to deal with the problem. He went so far as to express sympathy for the idea of a joint rule in Kashmir. knowing that Pakistan and India would have to cooperate to make it work. Speaking to the All-India Con- gress Committee in Bombay recent- ly. Nehru declared: “I hope that it may be possible for the country to develop closer and more intimate relations to the advantage of each." The Chinese. who now back Pakistan on Kashmir. and probably the Russians. who continue to sup- port India. can be expected to op- pose reconciliation of the two coun- tries. Neither desires to see a union of 600 million people, almost equal to the rest of non~Communist Asia. Africa and Latin America combined. It is hoped that the governing party in India will continue to carry out Nehru's reconciliation policy. re- gardless of who the new leader may be: but it is not at all certain that the right successor will be found. Meantime it is noted that the United States. which has tended to back Pakistan on Kashmir and is limiting military aid to India because Pakistan is a formal Western ally. now has an opportunity to encourage cooperation at a time when it would be most opportune. Under Two Flags A Canadian Press report credits Prime Minister Pearson with hav- ing added a new political dimension to the flag question by hoisting the Union Jack alongside his maple leaf design. Both banners were tied to- gether in a single resolution made public Wednesday. The resolution establishes that the new maple leaf design would become the official flag of Canada. while the Union Jack "may continue to be flown as a symbol of Canadian membership in the Commonwealth of nations and of our allegiance to the Crown." Government sources, it is stat- ed. hope that the wording of the resolution will make It easier for new-flag supporters to vote on the issue without suggesting to con- stituents that the action is anti- British. By the same token, it will make it harder for advocates of the Red Ensign to oppose a resolution which could be interpreted by their constituents as opposition to the Union Jack. There are indications. however. that the resolution may backfire politically. Mr. (Jaouette. leader of the Ill-member Creditiste group. was quoted yesterday as saying that his party will vote against it as it n0w stands. He asked. ironical- ly, whether anyone had measured the flagpolc on the Parliament Building to sac. whether it is long enough to carry two flags. The question was ignored by the govern- ment, but it. could pmve to be a not inept commentary on the quan- dry some Liberal. as well as Op- position. members may find them- selves in before the debate is over. Belated Tribute Speaking in Moscow the other day. Marshal Vasily Kazakov of the Soviet Union’s artillery branch said that "a big contribution to the common cause of victory (in World War II) was made by the peoples and armed forces of Britain. France and the United States." He added that "we also pay due regard to the actions of French. Italian. Polish and Norweigian guerrillas." What’s newsworthy about this? Plenty. if one is a follower of t he Soviet official line on World War II. According to that line. the Sov- iet Union brought Japan to its knees. and peace to the world. all by itself practically. It pushed Hit- ler to the edge of defeat and the Americans and British rushed up at the last moment to be in on the kill. The selfish Western imper- ialists tried in every way to keep the Soviet forces from getting promis- ed military end other material aid that they needed and that the West had in large measure. These false- hoods 'fOr years have been the basis of Soviet war history. Marshal Kazakov not only ad- mlte that Americans were in the war but that the Western powers actually helped to win it. This may portend a change in Soviet textbooks and encyclopedia. In the whole of- fldll m line.
